Police were called about a possible stabbing Tuesday after a man with a bloodied head walked into a Tim Hortons around 9 a.m.

Evidence led police to a nearby house at 223 Desrosiers Street. Police cordoned off the street for multiple hours while trying to communicate with anyone who might be inside the house. Ultimately, tactical officers stormed the residence but did not find a suspect.
